I did homework most of the day and then headed to my day-care job which was nice. It's always nice to see my kids. Then I came home to make cranberry vodkas and feed the fish. About to make myself another and admire my tanks for a while.

Had my weekly violin lesson yesterday...always fun. Practicing our duet for recital in a couple of weeks. Man...I suck. I always sound so good to myself at home...and then it's either nerves or my ear is totally off...but I am so out of tune when I start to play with my teacher...

Today my little adult beginner group is giving its first public performance...at a church craft fair. I play the viola in this group. The viola is a totally different animal - and I am not adept at reading the c clef. We'll see how well we do! Hopefully no one will be actually listening to us...

However, while I did get a little lost once during our bizarre version of The First Nowel (I couldn't hear what they were playing...so I was confused...)...I sounded okay at least (tone-wise). I am the only viola (the other 4 were on violins)...so I stand out a bit from the others...esp. when they're too scared to play loud enough...
